How to specify an IPv6 CIDR?

[edysli]

I'm trying to use slirp4netns for a single-stack IPv6, rootless Kubernetes cluster using k3s and can't find a way to specify the IPv6 CIDR to use. The --cidr=CIDR option apparently only accepts IPv4 addresses and I don't see any equivalent option for IPv6.
k3s generates the following command, but it fails:

$ slirp4netns --mtu 65520 -r 3 --disable-host-loopback --cidr fd5b:e9ce:dffb:cafe::/64 --enable-ipv6 12331 tap0
WARNING: Support for IPv6 is experimental
invalid CIDR: fd5b:e9ce:dffb:cafe::/64

How shall I specify the IPv6 CIDR to use?

It would be nice if this were configurable, like it is for IPv4. 😃
